The Beginning of my fabulous Journey!

Happy Monday,
     This is my first time doing a blog.  I have never read a blog, written a blog or even seen a blog that I am aware of.  The only thing I know about blogs is that Ugly Betty did one. A little bit about me:  I am a wife, mom, personal trainer, group exercise instructor (only Les Mills) and a full time college student.  If all goes as planned , in May 2011, at age uh hm...39 I will graduate with my bachelors degree in Health Management/Exercise science.  My 39th birthday was last week, so like it or not I am already on my 1 year journey to the big 4 0! I choose to like it, in fact I am gonna freakin LOVE it and set huge goals for myself.  This is the space that I will keep track of my progress and learn and laugh along the way. 
     Today is a hard day for me, a dear friend, someone who was a HUGE part of my childhood is fighting  for her life with cancer.  This breaks my heart, she is the greatest of people.  It also makes something crystal clear.  One of my goals will be to raise money for Livestrong and ride a 90 mile bike ride.  I can do it, all I have to do is train for it. 
     At different times in my own life, I have found myself stuck in a place I didn't really even want to be.  Physically, emotionally just stuck.  Also, I am a bit of a people watcher, and everywhere I go I see people's faces which mostly look so unhappy. I suppose that they are stuck too, not living life out to its fullest.  I want to live life to its fullest and not waste a single minute.  So what is the first step, remind yourself of all the things you want to do in your life.  If you don't remind yourself of all the things you want to do in your life, you will forget you want to do them.  And then years will pass by, with none of it done. So right now WRITE it down!  
     This week I will begin to make my list.  Writing down specific goals, that I am sure will evolve over the next few weeks.  How do I define 40 and fabulous?  I'm gonna have to think on that one!
